As you can see by how long it's been since I've posted...I have not felt creative at all lately! It is so sad to see all these wonderful toys (stamps, inks, papers, embellishments, etc.) sitting in my craft area...and not have the desire to play with them! I don't know what my problem was but I am thinking it was something along the lines of being abducted by aliens :) Whatever the reason, I have a bridal shower to go to this weekend and needed to do something.
I struggled with ideas because I barely know the bride to be (although I am looking forward to getting to know her better) and both her and her groom to be are coming from established homes. Honestly...I'm not even sure if it is tradition to bring a gift but I feel bad going empty handed!!!
Thanks to the internet this is what I came up with
It's a cute poem that corresponds to different cleaning products, which I thought was a great idea because EVERYONE could use more cleaning products!!! Here is the link to where I found the poem, and here is a close up picture of the poem.
I wanted to make a card to match so I used the sketch over at Mojo Monday Sketch Challenge.
It's all made with Whisper and Slate cardstock from Close To My Heart (CTMH). The background script is embossed with the Cuttlebug and then I inked over it with Slate Ink. The flowers and the shape for the sentiment are cut from the CTMH Cricut Art Philosophy cartridge. The sentiment is from the CTMH stamp set "You Are My Happy". The glitter on the card and the poem is Stickles...I am addicted to this stuff!!!
Have a wonderful day...and get crafting!!!!I am hoping that the bride to be enjoys this as much as I did making it!!! Thank you for taking the time to stop by and look...I hope you enjoyed it as well!!! Don't forget to go here and look at all of the other amazing cards that have been made using this Monday Mojo sketch.
The basket of goodies and the sentiment that goes with is great! I love your card even more with all the matching goodies!
